Avatar… dreamwalker body characterised by smooth blue iridescent skin, proportionately small skull, high cheekbones, feline ears and a protruding snout. Bioluminescant markings are for identification and mood display.
Many visitors to the post @ Free Web Design have left links to their own Avatar creations in the comments, all featuring fantastic blue skin. I’m going to leave mine!
Once you create your masterpiece, I suggest you paste your link in the coments at the bottom of this post as well.

Here’s some examples so far – starting with the creation that is the feature of the tutorial.

Avatar Thesis Skin
Idea: If anybody wants to design an Avatar Thesis Skin I’ll be interested in promoting it along with this post and adding it to anywhere else I refer to Thesis Skins.
My photoshop skills are very basic (self taught bad habits) otherwise I’d do it myself.

Avatar: Movie Phenomenon filled with Subtle Messages
The Na’vi of Pandora are a peaceful people. They believe all life is sacred and should be honoured. This includes paying respect to the plants and animals that are harvested or killed to provide sustenance. Does this remind you of something?

Come back and leave a link to your creation when it’s done.
Nice post with a good article on this post. It is really nice sharing. I am very glad to read this nice article. Keep it up…..
Excellent piece.
The spin-off products of Avatar are starting to make headway. If James Cameron decides to make another film he will already have a loyal following that should rival Star Wars’.
Keep up the good work.

Wow. I just read your review on Avatar and left a comment. I will have to add your blog to my list of movie related worthwhile reading blogs. Thanks for stopping by and joining in on the conversation.
Thank you for your generous praise, Somone. I look forward to reading more of your posts.
Very nice blog. I really enjoyed this article and movie both. It was very exciting.
This tutorial is just awesome! I know my little cousins will die for this! They are going to absolutely love me when I do this to their pictures. I love it when designers makes life easy for us wannabe-designers! I can play around a bit in the graphics packages, but the advanced stuff I leave to the artists. At least I can occasionally do something spectacular via the help of a decent tutorial or two.
I’d love you to post a link to your end result. I still have to do this for my sons.
Very awesome of you to share these – thanks! :)
Fantastic article with some great pictures. I really enjoyed this article.

I’m not sure that I’ll be able to do that miracles with my own help buy I’ll try!
